@HST - What doctors do you recommend? I have been going to Zebba, but the 1 to 2 hour wait time at every appointment is ridiculous. Plus Dr. Molin's idea of an acceptable AHI is anything under 15 (his words).
lol AHI under 15? Ive dealt with Dr. Chemplavil and he knows his stuff but he is booked(2 to 3 months to get in), Dr. Weingarten, ENT consultants(good Dr's there) and Dr. Lubritz are some that I know of.

Strongly suggest you start your own new thread with a relevant heading ("Supplies in Boulder?").

So... tell us a horrible client/patient story.
I'm in the exact same boat you were. I had no idea what equipment I was being given 3 1/2 months ago, but thankfully my DME did right by me from what I can tell.
